Continue researching ideas connected to tessellations, ensure your work includes some Maori patterns.

Create your own wallpaper design using your research which you would like to hang on your bedroom wall.

Your submitted piece of work needs to include original brainstorming ideas regarding theme and colour, any designs which you considered before selecting the final design and most importantly two full colour examples of your wallpaper. The examples should demonstrate how the wallpaper lines up between sections when hung. The minimum size for each example is an A4 piece of paper. If necessary the detail of parts of the pattern may be drawn on a computer, but the translation and pattern repeat interval must be constructed by hand.

If you have additional time you may research other types of wall covering and/or attempt the Paving Paths problem below.

On completion of this part, you may move on to the work set for weeks 3 onwards provided Mrs Attard has accepted your completed wall paper design.

The complete wall paper pieces along with the brainstorming ideas must be submitted to Mrs Attard by MONDAY 10th SEPTEMBER. Please ensure all work is named on the back.


Paving Paths problem:

How many different ways can I lay 10 paving slabs each 50 cm by 1 metre, to make a path 1 metre wide from my back door into my garden, without cutting any of the paving slabs?

Answers should be presented with a detailed method.
